OTN Tour Latin America 2016: Chile

Oracle Technology Network Tour Latam 2016:
Santiago de Chile

The conference in Chile was exceptional for a couple of reasons. For the first time ever I met German, the tech reviewer of my WebLogic 12c book. A great guy (not sure if he wants to read his name here – just get the book, he is in the acknowledgement!) who did a brilliant job in editing the 12c book. We had lunch together with his friends from Oracle ACS and the best I can say it felt like friends you know for years and not somebody you met 30 minutes ago. It was a pleasure meeting you guys!

Conference

The conference itself was the University San Sebastian in Bellavista area. Quite a few presentations were running in several rooms in parallel.

Also Santiago is great. From every traffic jam you can see the mountains! It is really a pity I couldn’t go to any more remote places like Atacama desert or Torre de Paine. Anyway both are now top on my to-travel list. My friends know what this means. Stay tuned.

Again I did a Docker live demo. The audience seemed to like it, what do you think? Also the room was big enough for big ideas. Big thank you to CLOUG and Felipe Manriquez.

The non Conference Part

I did not really have a lot of time for sightseeing but I managed to nip out and have a seafood lunch at the Mercado Central before heading to airport. Actually a memorable drive, since the Uber driver was driving alongside the runway but was not able to find the airport 🙂
